Alex is the dream producer. As creative as he is technically proficient, he has a brilliant eye for every aspect of the project with a seemingly inexhaustible supply of energy. He is speedy, has endless patience, and is a great and sympathetic collaborator to those he works with.

Basically, if someone tried to create the ultimate Frankenstein's monster of talent - editor, writer, producer, designer, director, ideas developer - they would end up with Alex.

The success of No Such Thing As A Fish in particular is hugely down to Alex's involvement.
